Foreword by Raymond Blanc

Uncomplicated and delicious, the 300 recipes assembled here can all be prepared in ten minutes – and in a saucepan or frying pan rather than a microwave. Ultra-rapid soups, instantaneous sauces, split-second egg dishes and quick-fire desserts all feature here, together with vegetable, fish and meat recipes susceptible to Pomiane's unique approach to cooking. As fast – and as witty – as classic Hollywood comedy, Cooking in Ten Minutes is a book that belongs in every kitchen.
